Welcome to the Sandbox Project, a way to test different programming languages and projects

• Installation
• Usage
• Configuration

Head to the releases page and download the MSI build. From there, install it like any other program!

Note Plans have been made to add sandbox to Homebrew and the AUR

$ wget https://github.com/the-sandbox-project/sandbox/releases/download/v0.2.1/sandbox -O ~/.local/bin 

sandbox --help This is the default Help command, running will produce:

sandbox --new <ENVIRONMENT>

This is the New command, it will start a new session with a specified environment and go back to a previously edited environment if one has been created before.

Ex:

$ sandbox --new rust-min 

Output:

 __ ___ ___ ___ __ __ /\_\ ___ ___ / _ `\ / __`\ / __`\/\ \/\ \\/\ \ / __` __`\ /\ \/\ \/\ __//\ \_\ \ \ \_/ |\ \ \/\ \/\ \/\ \ \ \_\ \_\ \____\ \____/\ \___/ \ \_\ \_\ \_\ \_\ \/_/\/_/\/____/\/___/ \/__/ \/_/\/_/\/_/\/_/ (rust-min) 📂 Find File 📄 Recents 🔎 Find Word 🔖 Bookmarks ↗️ Last Session 

sandbox --search <ENVIRONMENT>

This is the Search command, you will use this to search the templates repository and find a template that interests you!

Ex:

$ sandbox --search minimal 

Output:

 ❌ Default Rust Project (rust-min) - Minimal Rust Project, Created with Cargo new ✅ Default Golang Project (go-min) - Minimal Golang Project Environments That Match Query minimal Install any of these with sandbox install <ENVIRONMENT>

sandbox --install <ENVIRONMENT>

This is the install command! You will use this to install the environments you find in the search field.

Ex:

$ sandbox --install rust-min 

Output:

 [00:00:00] [#######################################] 340B/340B (0.0s) Installed rust-min! Test it out with: sandbox --new rust-min 

Sandbox has a configuration file

Windows's Sandbox Configuration file is stored in the Appdata:

%APPDATA%/sandbox/sandbox.yml

MacOS and Linux share the same config file location! You are able to find it here:

~/.config/sandbox/sandbox.yml

# sandbox.yml editor: editorName: "code"

Note: the editorName field is the editor command for any editor, for example: Neovim would be nvim
